Man Criminalized By NJ Gun Laws, Pardoned By Chris Christie Becomes A Baltimore Police Officer
Do you remember the story of a young New Jersey private security guard who nearly faced jail time for being in possession of a legal firearm? Well, he’s now free to become a police officer and will be serving in the Baltimore Police Department.

I had originally written in The Hill about this major victory for 26-year-old Steffon Josey-Davis, but they chose a different title unrelated to the article to generate more clicks. So I chose to publish an article about Steffon desiring to serve this country in law enforcement.
Josey-Davis is a former private security guard from North Brunswick, NJ who will now serve as a police officer in Baltimore, Maryland. His case first garnered attention after he was arrested for possession of a firearm–a legally-owned Smith & Wesson M&P Shield–on September 20, 2013. His crime? Leaving it in his glove compartment.

Awesome!! Was it a Christie pardon, though, or was this a case that wasn't prosecuted? (Like the PA mom, Shaneen Allen.) I can't keep them straight. NJ gun laws suck ass.

And there's let a few more select States in the union left to pull out of his ass.

So now he can return to NJ with the gun on his person, and from Exit 1 of the Turnpike to the Port Jervis he would be fine.

In fact fine from one end of the union to the other, except its not a union anymore, and different rules for different animals and all that.

Turkeys only really need to worry about Thanksgiving. Every day in my travels I have to make sure if I am in New Rochelle headed to Pelham Manor or Yonkers or Mt. Vernon that I don't stray over the line into NYC with my handgun...because of course that entire DMZ is clearly marked, and with the buried underground electric wires if I did happen to venture over that border the mild electric shock would keep me on the safe side of the law.

Sorry for the rant.

I will not celebrate a pardon for a none crime.

Well, that was rather dumb of me, lol.

I will cerebrate. It shows the absurdity of the laws where an otherwise law abiding citizen can become a criminal for crossing an imaginary line. In this case, it clearly shows that not to be the case.
